Re: Brother printer

<r>My MFC-J6510DW for Dye Sub is sitting with a clog in the black print head at the moment. The joys of using cheap inks I suppose. However, it has performed flawlessly for the greater part of 4 years and often sits unused for weeks at a time when I am away. Most recently I was in hospital for 5 ...

Re: Recovering from PC Desktop

<r>I haven't used Windows since I decided to go back to real computers after 20 years of having to work on Microsoft stuff. Getting back to Unix based computing was a breath of fresh air again.<br/>
<br/>
Anyway, I can't help much because I'm out of touch with Windows, but I would expect the data ...

Re: Recovering from PC Desktop

<t>If it is a Windows computer, and assuming MS have not changed how they do stuff, all stuff saved on your Windows desktop, is saved in a folder called 'Desktop'. And unless things have changed, no, it is not backed up anywhere unless you do a manual copy regularly.<br/>

If you reinstall ...

Re: Recommendations for mug/heat tape

<t>We only ever use the cheapest 'sticky tape' we can find, and have done for years. I still have all my brand new expensive never touched heat tape here in case I find a practical use for it. The cheap sticky tape doesn't seem to leave much residue after pressing like the expensive stuff like 3M or ...

Re: Mug Help - Ghosting Black Text on Polymer Mugs

<r>Hi Lianne. I think perhaps you might need to play with the pressure and time. There's really not much you can do once you get the temperature right, other than adjust the pressure and time.<br/>
<br/>
As I mentioned I found the instructions with the press were so far out of reality it too ages to ...

Re: Mug Help - Ghosting Black Text on Polymer Mugs

<r>Hi llannef,<br/>
<br/>
I've not done any poly mugs with large solid black text, so I have no idea if big black letters would be ghosting on my jobs.<br/>
<br/>
But my small black and solid blues are ok I think. I use a cheap Chinese press for the polymer mugs. The ones you see all over ebay with ...

Re: Best value sublimation ink & paper for Brother MFC-J651ODW

<r>Hi Susan,<br/>
<br/>
The Brother printers use 'Epson' compatible sublimation ink. If you use a poor quality ink, you can probably expect poor quality results I guess. <br/>
